A girlfriend and I were talking about this on Thursday and how isolated we feel. Sure life gets in the way, especially once kids come along as I guess all our focus, rightly or wrongly, goes to them.

We did laugh at the irony of "social media" and how it seems to have made society more anti-social! As MD said, we tend to text or instant message someone who we may have previously picked up the phone to talk to.

Not sure exactly what *I'm* going to do, however, my girlfriend and I have decided to catch up on Fridays for coffee and a chat whilst both our kids are at childcare, so I guess that's a start...
